PowderBlue Posted December 25, 2016 Share Posted December 25, 2016 Beautiful, you're ballsy, I've never been able to pull the trigger on another powder. Bad luck with 2 of them, by far my favorite tangs! Sent from my SM-G928V using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad luck with 2 of them, by far my favorite tangs! Sent from my SM-G928V using Tapatalk Thank you!! I lucked out and got it from a local reefer who was downsizing! It was already establish, fat, and healthy! So I took a chance and it's been in perfect health ever since! I know they can be super difficult so I'm not looking forward to the future when I get a powder blue or gold rim haha. I just love tangs, I would love to have a tang dominated tank one day!

PowderBlue Posted December 25, 2016 Share Posted December 25, 2016 I agree, every time I see a tang, I want it lol. I just added a Naso. I think we have a tang addiction. Lol Sent from my SM-G928V using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spectra Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 I get a camera Tuesday.............nothing fancy I picked up an older DLRS used to make sure I like it before dumping a bunch of cash......... Pics look good! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paratore Posted January 2, 2017 Author Share Posted January 2, 2017 I get a camera Tuesday.............nothing fancy I picked up an older DLRS used to make sure I like it before dumping a bunch of cash......... Pics look good! Thanks for the kind words! You'll love it the DSLR. It's so nice being able to take quality pictures. And my avast porthole I won makes the pictures a million times better too. I would also highly recommend a close up lens filter kit. Only cost $9 on amazon and it basically turns your camera lens into a macro lens.

Those are Radio Active Dragon Eyes with them right (RDEs)? Thanks! Idk if they are! They kinda look like it but a little different. These ones are a larger polyp RDEs if that's what they are. Because I have zoas that I know for sure are RDEs and they are brighter and smaller. Later today I can try to get a side by side picture and see what you think!
